1INTRODUCTION

This manual contains information regarding

MXL equipment and detectors that are US

Coast Guard approved. The use of any other

equipment in systems required by US Coast

Guard regulations, but not US Coast Guard

approved, should only be considered when

absolutely necessary. Special US Coast

Guard one-time approval would be required.

NOTE: When designing Fire Control

Systems for various types of vessels, the

designer should be aware of the required

vessel type, domestic and SOLAS regula-

tions applicable for that vessel.

The MXL Control Panel from Siemens

Building Technologies, Inc. is an advanced

fire protection and alarm control panel that

provides superior fire protection and multi-

plexed alarm reporting. Its use of unique

multi-processor network design along with

its ability to utilize both analog and conven-

tional detection devices, make it the out-

standing control unit in the life safety field.

Regardless of the size or complexity of the

life safety and security system require-

ments, the MXL system can be used for the

smallest to the largest applications.

The MXL is ideally suited for Marine, institu-

tional and industrial fire and security appli-

cations.

The MXL Control Panel can process logical

decisions based on the status of initiating

devices. The system will also respond to

specified sequences of output circuit operation.

The MXL Control Panel is capable of read-

ing and displaying the sensitivity of remote

intelligent/analog ionization and photoelecric

detection devices at the control panel.

The system complies with the requirements

of NFPA 72 and NFPA13. It is Underwriters

Laboratory 864 and 1076 security listed.

The basic MXL Control Panel can monitor

up to 2 analog loops, each containing up to

60 intelligent devices. Through the addition

of a MOM-4 card cage, the System can be

expanded to as many as 6 analog loops.

(With the addition of PSR-1 power supplies,

the System can be expanded to as many as

34 analog loops.)

The MXL Control Panel can control a wide

variety of System outputs, such as conven-

tional Form C relay contacts, solid state

outputs, supervised outputs to control alarm

notification appliances, municipal tie out-

puts, and leased line outputs.

The MXL Control Panel can process logical

decisions based on the status of initiating

devices. The System can respond with

customer-specified sequences of output

circuit operation.

The System continuously checks all soft-

ware and hardware for proper operation. It

continuously checks all System memory

components, control panel electronic hard-

ware, and the System program. A hardwire

watchdog circuit is provided to ensure that

System programs are functioning properly. If

I. Description of the MXL

Marine Control Panel

2a problem develops with the program or

processor, the watchdog circuit places the

System into a trouble condition and resets it.

To ensure reliable operation, the MXL

System is composed of independent mod-

ules, each with its own microprocessor. If

the main panels central processing unit

stops, these modules, operating in degrade,

still annunciate any alarm or trouble through

common lines called Any Alarm and Any

Trouble. All of the modules communicate

with the MXL Panel through a serial com-

munications system.

All modules are continuously supervised for

their presence and for proper operation.

Problems are shown on the display to aid in

servicing and troubleshooting.

The MXL System is designed so that fire

alarm operation has first priority over all

other modes of operation. If the System

loses battery and commercial power, it

automatically goes through an initialization

routine when power is returned.

EQUIPMENT LOCATION

MXL System equipment shall not be installed

in locations that require an exceptional

degree of protection such as those that are

exposed to weather, seas, splashing,

pressure-directed liquids or similar moisture

conditions. These locations include:

1. On deck

2. A machinery space

3. A cargo space

4. A location within a galley or pantry area,

laundry or water closet which contains a

shower or bath; and

5. Other spaces with similar environmental

conditions.

SOFTWARE

The MXL software was written in a high

level language for ease of maintenance.

The software incorporates a multitasking

operating system that allows the micropro-

cessor to handle many tasks almost simulta-

neously. This enables the MXL System to

handle communications to all initiating and

output option boards and to the annunciator.

This also enables the MXL System to check

that everything is running.

When the MXL Control Panel receives

power, the System runs a start-up proce-

dure that sets up all initial conditions. The

System then starts the operating system

and the initialization routines for all of the

tasks, most of which concern handling

System modules. When the display task is

finished initializing, it displays the default

time and date at powerup. Initialization of

other modules may take several seconds,

but this takes place in the background and

so does not affect System operation.

The MXL System polls all network addresses

to see that all specified modules are present

and that there are no unspecified modules.

Any modules or devices that do not agree with

the programmed data are reported as

troubles on the annunciator.

NET-4 Board



The PSR-1 module is a microprocessor

controlled remote power supply and battery

charger. This module allows the basic MXL

System to expand to more than 2000 points.

It operates with an MPS-6 or an MPS-12 to

provide 6 or 12 amps of power for various

MXL modules.

The PSR-1 module:

1. Acts as an interface between remote

option modules and the MXL when used

with a NET-4 or NET-7 plug-in

communication module.

2. Can be used to power an MOI/MOD

annunciator driver set.

3. Can be used as an auxiliary power supply

in a stand-alone mode without an MXL.

There are nine status indicators on the PSR-1

(Refer to Figure 14). There are also two

relays used for common alarm and common

trouble or, if programmed, for local alarm and

local trouble.

NET-4 Communication Interface

The NET-4 provides the communication

interface between remote PSR-1 panels and

the main MXL. Each NET-4 connected

represents one network drop on the MXL

System. You can have up to 32 network

drops, including the MMB-2.

The NET-4 installs into the PSR-1 module

which provides all necessary power to the

NET-4. There are no configuration switches or

jumpers on the NET-4. (See Figure 15.)

11

NET-7 Communication Interface

The NET-7 module provides a Style 7

communication interface between the main

MXL and multiple remote panels in an MXL

System. Each NET-7, except the NET-7

connected to the MMB, electrically isolates

the pairs from the local power supply and

isolates ground faults to a single remote

panel. The MMB provides ground fault

detection for the two pairs.

Each NET-7 connected represents one

network drop on the MXL System. There

can be a maximum of 32 drops including the

MMB. The NET-7 has a network address

which must be set on the module and

installed into the CSG-M network map.

The NET-7 offers advanced performance

over the NET-4. NET-7s and NET-4s

cannot be combined in the same system.


The MOI-7 is an MXL network module that

connects to a graphic annunciator using

MOD-16s and MID-16s. The MOI-7 can be

connected to either Style 4 or Style 7 wiring.


The MOD-16 Output Driver module is a

graphic annunciator driver controlled by the

MOI-7 module. Up to eight MOD-16s can be

used with an MOI-7. Each MOD-16 can

activate up to 16 outputs for a total of 128

outputs.

MID-16 Input Driver

The MID-16 Input Driver provides 16 gen-

eral purpose inputs for user-defined opera-

tions for the MXL. The MID-16 is controlled

by the MOI-7 module. Up to eight MID-16s

can be used with an MOI-7. The function of

each individual input is defined by the usage

assigned to it in the CSG-M.

The PIM-1 module is an interface for an

MXL System to remote peripheral devices

such as printers, VDTs and CRTs. It con-

nects an RS-232C device or CRT to an MXL

System without the peripheral device's

protective ground causing a ground fault.

The interface operates at up to 9600 baud

without losing any characters.

CZM-1B6 Remote Conventional Zone

Module

The CZM-1B6 is an MXL intelligent device

that connects a single zone of conventional

devices to an analog loop. The CZM-1B6 can

power up to 15 compatible two-wire, ioniza-

tion or photoelectric smoke detectors. It can

also monitor an unlimited number of shorting

devices such as waterflow switches, thermal

detectors, manual stations, etc.

Each CZM-1B6 can be assigned a

32-character custom alphanumeric message.

It also includes an alarm indicator LED

which is visible through the cover plate.

The CZM-1B6 supports Style D (Class A)

and Style B (Class B) wiring. The module

uses one address on the analog circuit.

LIM-1 Loop Isolator Module

The LIM-1 Loop Isolator Module isolates

short circuits on MXL analog loops. By

placing devices between LIM-1s during

installation, a short in the wiring within that

group is disconnected from the rest of the

loop. The remainder of the devices continue

to operate. The LIM-1 operates in both Style

6 (Class A) and Style 4 (Class B) circuits.

It is a US Coast Guard requirement that the

fire detection system have two sources of

power. Most large ships have both main

generators and emergency generators;

therefore, they can satisfy this requirement

by arranging to have power supplied to the

fire detection system by both the main and

emergency generators.

In cases where there are no emergency

generators, battery backup power to the

system is required. Revised US Coast

Guard regulations have reduced the

required battery operation time to 36 hours

for passenger ships and 18 hours for all

II. Power Requirements

other types of vessels. In cases where it is a

desired option to furnish the fire detection

system with standby battery power, even

when there are main and emergency

generators supplying the system, there is

no specific battery operation time period,

although it would be recommended to be a

minimum of 18 hours.

When the smoke detection system is

furnished with battery backup power, it is

necessary to calculate the system power

requirement to determine the battery am-

pere-hour capacity necessary.

NOTE: An approved Power Transfer Relay must be used for the automatic transfer from

main power to secondary power when the main power source has 15% to 20%

potential variation. The transfer to secondary power creates a visual and audible

trouble signal on the MXL Control Panel. The Model PTR-1 Power Transfer Relay

from Siemens Building Technologies, Inc. was designed for this purpose.

III. Audible Alarms

ALARM LOCATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

Ten inch bells are required to sound in the following locations when any alarm initiating device is

actuated.

1. Alarm bell must always sound on the bridge regardless of which zone is in alarm.

2. Alarm bells must sound in the engine room, machinery spaces, and the control room when

the alarm is initiated in any of these spaces. In case the control room might be unattended

at the time of alarm, bells must also be installed in the passageways and lounge areas of

the licensed engineers quarters.

3. If an alarm is not acknowledged (silenced or reset) at the control panel within 2 minutes, the

control panel must automatically cause the General Alarm to sound.

NOTE: If it should be necessary to supplement the 10 inch bell audible output in high

noise background areas with horns, sirens, strobes, flashing or rotating lights,

the wiring to such supplementary alarm devices does not have to be supervised.

However, audible alarms other than bells must always be accompanied by lights

or strobes.



20

V. Remote Annunciation

REMOTE ANNUNCIATORS

When the main control panel is located on the navigating bridge, remote annunciation is not

required by the US Coast Guard. However when the main control panel is located in a fire

control station which is not a constantly attended space, a supervised complete system status

annunciator is required.

IV. Initiating DevicesManual

Intelligent/Analog Manual Station MSI-10B/20B

Conventional Manual Station MS-51/501

Reference US Coast Guard Approved Equipment List

Manual stations are recommended for use with automatic fire detectors. If a fire is observed

before automatic detector response, the manual activation of the station results in the same

system response as automatic detection. Manual stations should be installed throughout the

accommodation spaces, the service spaces, and the control stations.

NOTE: One manual station should be located at each exit. The stations should be readily

accessible in the corridors of each deck so that no part of the corridor is more

than 60 feet (20 meters) from another manual station.



21

VI. Detector Application and Spacing

2. THERMAL DETECTORS

2.1 Description and Function

All thermal detectors respond only to exces-

sive heat, which is assumed to be gener-

ated from a flaming fire. The detectors are

designed with different operating principles

as described below.

2.1.1 Fixed Temperature

The air temperature has to exceed the set

ratings of the devices in order to activate it.

The settings are 135 F, 190 F and higher

(on special order).

2.1.2 Rate Compensated

This type of thermal detector is similar to

the fixed temperature detector in operation,

but is compensated to eliminate the expected

thermal lag and, therefore, responds faster.

2.2 Spacing

Maximum approved spacing of thermal

detectors is as follows:

Maximum

Area Protected Distance from

Type (Square Feet) Sidewalls (Feet)

Fixed Temperature (DT-11) 625 (25 X 25) 12.5

Fixed and

Rate of Rise 2500 (50 X 50) 25

Rate Compensated 2500 (50 X 50) 25

1. SMOKE DETECTORS

1.1 Description and Function

Smoke detector is the generic name given

to either ionization type or photoelectric type

detectors. The ionization type responds to

both visible and invisible products of com-

bustion, while the photoelectric type depends

on sensing visible smoke.

1.2 SpacingFor average areas with smooth ceilings and

normal air movement, the maximum recom-

mended spacing is 900 square feet or no

more than 30 feet between centers and 15

feet from a sidewall. In areas with higher air

movement, the detector spacing should be

reduced accordingly.

1.3 Application Limitations

1.3.1 On ceiling heights below 8 feet, the

possibility of unintentional alarms from

tobacco smoke does exist, especially in

areas where people might congregate. It is

recommended that smoke detectors in such

areas have their zones wired through alarm

confirmation module.

1.3.2 Smoke detectors should not be used

in areas where they could be subjected to

steam or moisture condensation such as in

galleys, laundries, etc. Thermal detectors

should be used in such areas.

22

3. PLANNING A FIRE DETECTION

SYSTEM

When planning a fire detection system,

make a choice of detector based on the

kinds of fires expected. The type and

quantity of fuel, possible ignition sources,

ranges of ambient conditions, and the value

of the property to be protected should all be

considered.

In general, heat detectors have the lowest

cost and false alarm rate, but are the slow-

est to respond. Since the heat generated by

small fires tends to dissipate fairly rapidly,

heat detectors are best used to protect

confined spaces, or directly over hazards

where flaming fires can be expected. They

are usually installed on a grid pattern at

their recommended spacing distances or at

reduced spacing for faster response. The

operating temperature of a heat detector

should be at least 25 F above the maxi-

mum expected ambient temperature in the

area protected.

Detector Application and Spacing

Smoke detectors cost more than heat

detectors, but respond faster to fires. They

are better suited to protect large open

spaces than heat detectors because smoke

does not dissipate as rapidly as heat does

in the same size space. Smoke detectors

are either installed according to prevailing

air current conditions or on a grid layout.

Photoelectric smoke detectors are best

used in places where wire insulation or

other smoldering fires may be expected.

Ionization smoke detectors are useful where

fire would be expected to develop into a

small flaming condition soon after pyrolysis.

NFPA Standard 72 Chapter 5 has more

specific information on the installation of the

various types of detectors.

23

3.1 Detector Application

In view of the problems that can be expected with the misapplication and location of detection

devices aboard ship, the guidelines below should be followed when designing systems.

These tables list situations where the use of smoke detectors, ionization and photoelectric

should be avoided.

3.1 MXL Intelligent/Analog Detectors

Photoelectric/Ionization and MXL Conventional Photoelectric/Ionization Detectors shall

not be installed in cargo holds and RO/RO spaces.

NOTE: Conventional weatherproof thermal detectors DT-135WP/DT-200WP must be used

Areas to be Protected

ACCOMMODATION SPACES (ION,

PHOTO)

Halls, dining rooms, lounges, and other

areas of this type with permanent walls,

corridors, sanitation facilities, cabins,

offices, infirmaries, and leisure rooms not

containing cooking appliances.

SERVICE AREAS (ION, PHOTO, TEMP)

Service cabinets, radio rooms,

strong rooms, stores, workshops other

than machinery spaces, and similar

areas, including shafts going to them,

as well as life-vest storage areas.

SPECIAL AREAS (ION, PHOTO, TEMP)

Closed areas for transport of special

materials.

SAFETY STATIONS (ION, PHOTO,

TEMP)

Areas housing the radio equipment,

major navigation equipment, standby

generator and central installations.

MACHINERY SPACES (ION, PHOTO,

TEMP)

Areas housing the propulsion unit,

boilers, liquid-fuel handling units,

stabilization equipment, ventilation and

air conditioning equipment, and similar

areas, including the shafts running to

them.

Monitoring Machinery Spaces

Because of the irregular shape of most

machinery spaces and the strong air

currents present, the number and type

of detectors used cannot be based on

the area protected, as is in the common

practice on land-based installations and

ship accommodation spaces. The best

design approach is to pick out all poten-

tial fire outbreak areas and place a fire

detector above each of them at deck

level. Areas of potential fire risk include

the following:

Auxiliary boiler front

Main boiler front

Fuel oil pressure pumps

Auxiliary generator sets

Main diesel engine fuel oil pumps

and injectors

Fuel oil purifiers

Lubricating oil purifiers

Fuel oil transfer pumps

Workshops

Electrical switchboards

Storerooms

Locate additional detectors with fairly

wide spacing to give general cover to

areas not containing special risk.


25


4. DETECTOR INSTALLATION

After the most suitable detector for the job is

selected, the location of the detector within

the space to be protected should be consid-

ered.

Spot type detectors are usually located on

the ceiling or side wall with the edge of the

detector located no closer than 4 inches

from the wall or ceiling. When heat detec-

tors are installed at their listed spacing,

detection times are approximately equiva-

lent to the operating time of standard 165F

link-and-lever sprinklers. If faster response

is desired, reduce detector spacing. Also,

where ceiling heights exceed 16 feet, or

where ceiling construction is not smooth,

reduce spacings accordingly. Specific

information on the treatment of joisted,

beamed, and sloped ceilings can be found

in Chapter 5 of NFPA (2002 Edition).

When installing any type of heat detector,

consideration should be given to sources of

heat within the protected space which might

cause false alarms. For example, locate heat

detectors away from unit heaters and ovens

where surges of hot air might be expected.

The installation of smoke detectors is more

critical than for heat detectors because

smoke transport is strongly influenced by

the convective air flow patterns within the

protected area. For this reason, smoke

detectors are not assigned a listed spacing

by the testing laboratories other than a

maximum area coverage of 900 square feet

per detector. Although a grid pattern can be

used as a starting point, care must be taken

to appropriately locate the heating supply

registers and return air registers. Smoke

detectors should be located away from

turbulence caused by hot air outlets. The

location of the smoke detectors should favor

return air because the return air draws

smoke toward the detector and because air

velocity at the return tends to be lower.

Smoke stratification also should be consid-

ered when smoke detectors are installed.

Smoke may stratify below a ceiling due to

temperature gradients or air flow along the

ceiling. When stratification is a possibility,

smoke detectors can be installed with

alternate detectors at different levels.

The installation of ionization type detectors

is similar to that of smoke detectors since

fire gases tend to flow with smoke and are

similarly affected by convected flows within

the protected space. They also must be

located away from sources of oxidizable

gases or vapors; for example, away from

substances like aerosol sprays or hydrocar-

bon solvents, as these substances could

cause false alarms.

tion, first battery and then AC. (To power

up, connect the AC first and then the battery.)

1. Wire in accordance with local codes and

NEC 760.

2. Determine the location of knockouts in the

sides of the backbox where field wiring is

required.

a. Drill a hole of appropriate size at each

knockout location.

b. Install a compression raintight fitting

(user supplied) at each knockout

location. Refer to Figure 31.

3. Pull all field wiring into the backbox. Do

not dress the wiring until the location of all

the equipment is known.

4. Install the wiring from the external AC power

source to the approximate location of the

power supply (MPS-6 or MPS-12). Add one

ferrite each to the hot, neutral and ground

wires as shown in Figure 32. Add ferrites

per Figure 32 for each MPS-6 or MPS-12 in

the system.

ALD-2I LOOP CONFIGURATION GUIDE

The ALD-2I loading graph on page 33 plots the ALD-2I Loop output current verses the total line

resistance. The results are used to determine the maximum line resistance, which can be

tolerated in conjunction with the number and types of devices connected to the loop. The current

for each device is listed on the graph. Note: This is device inrush current and must be used for

this calculation.

1. Add the individual currents for each device that is to be connected to the loop.

2. Locate the total ALD-2I current on the Y-axis and draw a horizontal line until it intersects

the curve.

3. At the point of intersection draw a vertical line down until it intersects with the X-axis. It is at

this point that the graph will yield the total amount of line resistance that can be tolerated by

the loop.

The ALD-2I loading graph is to used to maximize the number of devices that can be installed on

the ALD-2I loop of an MXL system.

The vertical axis of the graph is milliamperes of current and the horizontal axis is ohms. When

you know either the total device current on an ALD-2I loop or the total resistance (both wires) of

that loop, the graph can be used to determine the other variable.

EXAMPLE #1: The total line resistance of a loop is sixty (60) ohms. By using the graph you

will find that the total allowable device current is seventy-six (76) milliamperes.

EXAMPLE #2: The total device current on a loop is going to be eighty (80) milliamperes. By

using the graph you find that the maximum allowable loop resistance is fifty-

five (55) ohms.
